ME AND MY BICYCLE

"Are you ok? Do you need any help?". As I hear dis quesions and come turn around to reply de person wey ask me de quesions, him and de woman wey him been stand with just rush enter dem house. Wetin just happen? I stand dia like person wey see ghost. I still dey try to figure out de drama wey just happen.

Na afta I come yankee wey begin like to ride bicycle. Well..., I really no like am like dat. De tin start with de situation wey I been find my sef. When I been dey skool and I seriously need transport to and from my classes, but no get money to buy moto or enough money to enter bus or taxi, I come decide to buy bicycle.

See me wey no even get bicycle for Naija. I no know de last time wey I ride bike for Naija. Awa roads no dey good to ride bicycle. And de way we dey drive moto, I no go advice anybody to begin ride bike.

THANKSGIVING

Yes oo, de day wey de life of all de tolotolo no dey sef don come again! Dem dey call am thanksgiving day. Na de day wey everybody suppose tank God for all de good tins wey Him don for am. Na serious jolly time wey people dey over eat and over drink. And today take style dey more important pass xmas for some people.

And I say tolotolo dey trouble today because na de "official" meat wey everybody dey cook today (chicken and cow and pig get to rest small for at least 24hrs!). But ee get one special tolotolo wey go get "presidential pardon" today. Ee get tradition for white house where de presido go officially pardon one turkey, and nobody go kill am for chop.

WINTER DON COME AGAIN!! part 2

Part 1

When de wata for de pipe don block, de next tin na to break de pipe. And to stay without wata during winter no be wetin anybody wan joke with. So to avoid dis one, you go open ya tap small so da wata go continuously dey flow. Dis one go stop de wata for pipe to form ice block.
 
For de past three days, de cold for here no get part two. De kind snow wey don fall for some states plenty well well. Place like New York don get snow for dis three days wey dey equal to de kind snow wey dem dey get for de whole winter season. We for Texas dey lucky say snow no dey fall too much.

In fact, snow dey hardly fall for Texas. Anytime wey ee try fall na so people go dey behave like say manna dey fall from heaven. Children go dey play with de snow. Some go build "snow man", odas go mold am like ball dey stone each oda.

MARCHING BAND

Me I been attend navy nursery, navy primary and navy secondary skool. Wetin remain na to attend for "navy university", lol. But na for Uniport I for finish. Dat one no mean say I no try to go Nigerian Defence Academy. I try to buy de for but my mama no wan take ear hia any tin wey get to do with her pikin and souja work. Na so dat dream take end like dat.

I still remember all dos early morning assembly and marching wey we been dey do primary and secondary skool. Afta all de anouncement and oda gbogbotigbo wey dey take place, de drum boys go begin play and den each class go march go dem class. I remember as guys dey try come early so dat dem go follow for dos wey go play de marching drums. Na one of dos small tins wey dey make me wan reach skool very early. My favorite drum na de small one wey you go hang around ya waste and come play with dos two small sticks.

MOONSHINE, OYIBO PEOPLE KAIKAI

Me and drinks sef, we dey like five and six. Na beer be my drink. Any day any time, na beer I prefer. Sometimes I go drink wine or hot drink. I no too like dis ones. Wine or hot drink dey shack me quick quick. All my friends know say anytime I wan drink, na beer be my choice of "poison".

Guilder be my friend for Naija. "The ultimate" and me dey like five and six. If guilder no dey den I fit go for Star. But as Guilder or Star no dey for yankee and person get to drink beer, I dey "manage" de brands wey dem get here. Most of de beer here dey like wata to me, lol. De tin no dey enter my body like my Guilder. Infact I dey drink am like say na wata I dey drink.

WINTER DON COME AGAIN!! part 1

Dat time of de year when I hate well well don come again oo! Yes, winter season don begin for Texas wey I dey live. Temprature don begin fall to around 33 degrees Farenheit (1.7 degrees Celcius). I remember de initial time when I come yankee, de cold for winter almost freeze me one day. I wear de wrong jacket to go skool. Na so I begin shake like leaf. My fingers come strong kakaraka like stone and na so my ear almost break comot. De more I dey breath, de more I dey feel like say I dey inside freezer.

People been dey tell me say make I no worry, say I go dey used to am. I don dey here for almost seven years, and I go tell you say I neva still dey used to winter. To me, ee dey like say every year de cold dey increase. Me and cold no get any business. Even when I been dey Naija, I been no like harmattan at all. I remember when I been visit Abuja for harmattan, na so I dey wear two sweater any time I wan comot for house.

HOUSE HELP

"Cleaning help wanted, must be able to work independently", "nanny wanted urgently". Dis na some of de adverts you go dey see for newspaper or for websites like craigslist. For here, if you need house help, you no go just carry person pikin as we dey do for Naija den come make am to do all ya housework.

You must specify de kind work wey you wan make de person to do. If na to clean ya house, look afta ya small pikin, or to clean ya compound, you go find person to do dat work for you. And everytin for hia boil down to one tin-money. Dis one go depend how many hours or days de person go do de work for you.
